I don't want to sugar coat it. Spring is my favorite season. It's that sweet spot between bulky coats and bathing my whole body in sunscreen. There's just lots of great reasons to celebrate.
Why do you love spring - or prefer another season? Tell us and you'll be entered to win a foldable Fire Pit - so you can enjoy relaxing outside any evening of the year. Plus, this version even comes with a carrying case so it's great for tailgating, camping, or just hanging out in the yard.
I moan over losing that extra hour during Daylight Savings Time, but when it's still bright outside after dinner, it feels like a blessing. The weather is great for long walks, bike riding, playing with the kids, or my favorite - relaxing outside with dinner and a drink.
Flowers are finally out of hibernation and everything is blossoming. I love to get my hands dirty and feel the satisfaction of spending time outside in my garden. But even if you don't like to dig in the ground, it's hard not to smile when you drive down the street and see buds coming up, bushes turning color, or even fresh-cut bouquets in a store window.
Good-bye wool hats and mittens. Hello to throwing on a light sweater over flowy dresses or jeans with a cute tee. It's time to switch out the closet and get rid of everything bulky.
No, the cleaning part doesn't excite me, but now that I can open the windows wide, I'm finding my inner Marie Kondo and making the house feel a little more full of joy.
It's time to head out for delicious produce at Farmer's Markets and Strawberry Festivals. Or to enjoy the taste of spring all year long, plant an herb garden. You can buy the plants at your neighborhood garden store, and keep them inside or out. Cut the herbs off as needed, and sprinkle them on whatever you cook for months. Easy peasy and delicious.

I love spring as the flowers begin to bloom and the air smells like fresh cut grass!
I prefer Fall (no allergies in the Fall, or at least not full on misery) lol
I love watching the trees and grass turn green again, the beautiful flowers pop up out of the ground and the warmer weather of Spring. Spring is one of my favorite seasons.
I love getting back out in the garden!
Spring means sweet smells, flowers growing, longer days, and the anticipation of summer! I love to start planning my flower gardens and veggies that I will grow.
Spring means no more cabin fever! We can finally get outside and soak up some much needed sunshine!
I love spring because the weather is perfect, not too hot. I love when all of the flowers bloom and everything is neew and colorful.
I love seeing the grass turn green and grow and the flowers come out....and baby chicks!!!!

I love Spring because it's the beginning of camping season in Indiana!
I love the smell of fresh cut grass, starting the garden. My little kids being able to run around outside. Spring is wonderful.
I love spring because its a time for the earth to start over! All of the snow and cold is gone, the flowers, grass and trees are back in bloom. Love spending time outside with my kids and husband!
I love summer the most. Bring on the sunshine and the heat!!!
Spring means I've survived a cold, dull winter! I love going outside and checking on my plants coming up. Its uplifting and gives me hope.
